This is why you don't use 9 games worth of stats to predict if someone's a generational player. 2nd in the league for P/GP but let's roll back the clock one game prior to his big 5 point game, he was down the list in P/GP... less actually than The Flames' Gaudreau and tied with Monahan and Tkachuck, and slightly ahead of the Flames' Lindholm. None of those guys are considered generational. The first three are known to be above average players, and most people have never even heard of Lindholm. I guess Gaudreau would be considered an allstar.
